old dream

Chapter 147 The Northern Suburbs
Mastering the material knot is like putting together the last piece of the puzzle.

Regardless of absolute strength or weakness, at least they have complete tactical options in the witchcraft duel, so that no one will be caught and exploited.

Colin recalled the "mass solution technique", which had almost no practical value, but was only aimed at wizards who had not mastered knots.

And El's lineage will regard "mass solution" as the most important inheritance, which also shows that the proportion of such wizards is not small, otherwise it will not be enough to serve as their food.

By analyzing these details, we can already see the shadow of that group.As long as you master the complete tactical system, you can form a certain advantage.

El's death may not cause any waves in the "Northern Organization", because the Sindhili District has no irreplaceable value to them.After several setbacks, it is possible to give up marching this way.

But so what?As long as they control the rich old city for a day, they will be their enemies sooner or later.

And now Colin has enough qualifications to challenge that wizard group.

…………

In the evening, a large group of foraging crows made noise, passing over Colin and Ricardo's heads.

The countryside north of Stade connects with the plains in the north of the Principality.There are some tobacco and fruit plantations along the river, and the rest are continuous grain farms.

Colin was lying on the back of a mound, staring ahead.There was hardly any wind, and no sound could be heard except the flapping of birds' wings.

Less than 400 meters ahead is the distribution center located by tracking markers.Giovanni had already been here before, but this was the first time Colin saw the true face of this facility, an inconspicuous farm.Two nearly nine-meter-high barns each have a huge sloping roof, and the rest are stables and low wooden houses.

In the past two hours, three trucks have come here to load.Obviously it is the heart of the northern bootlegging organization, and bootlegging and funds are like blood, from here to every part of the organization.

Colin took a sip from the leather water bag. The field investigation was very boring. Although his eyes never left the target for a moment, he and Ricardo have been passing the time during these two hours, chatting casually. .This is the wild, and ordinary voices won't delay anything.

The prison farm where Ricardo served his sentence is located in this area, but he doesn't seem to have any resistance to returning here.

"...you know Elena too?"

Inadvertently, Ke Lin mentioned that Ji Lian had a friend who was going to live with her temporarily, but it turned out that Ricardo also knew about Elena.This is not surprising, after all, they used to be in the same convent school.Although Ricardo wasn't selected into the special group for extraordinary education, it was quite common for him to know Elena.

But it's not surprising, but it's also very strange.Ricardo has been skipping classes and rarely going to school, not to mention six or seven years have passed, and he has been thinking about the name of a opposite sex.

"So she went to Nadaro?" Ricardo asked a little erratically, almost making Colin think that this kid was someone else's impostor.

There was a straw in the corner of Ricardo's mouth, and he chewed it unconsciously.This was probably a habit he picked up while toiling on the prison farm.

Perhaps returning to the hometown where he served two years in prison brought back some memories of the past in his heart. Ricardo's usual vigorous feeling faded a lot, and he almost returned to the Aspen Hotel two months ago. Colin once again The way I saw him.On irrelevant topics, he would also be silent and distracted without warning, obviously thinking about something.

Although he didn't know what happened between Ricardo and Elena, but looking at his distraught appearance, Colin could guess.He half-jokingly said that Elena couldn't find a place to sleep in Southstadt, so she might as well live in your rented house.

Ricardo hurriedly laughed and shook his head, saying troublesome and inconvenient things.But there is actually a hint of inferiority in his seemingly free and easy smile, which did not escape Colin's eyes.

Ricardo was not a naturally brave person, but he always had an inexplicable passion for gang activities, and he never gave in even in the face of torture and life-and-death struggle.But now facing a woman, he began to feel inferior and shy because of the things he was proud of?
Colin continued:
"Elena was transferred back from the Principality of the Holy Province. It seems to be downgraded, but she joined the Prohibition Bureau that has just been established and has attracted much attention, and the position does not seem to be low."

"At her age, she can have such a status. It can be said that her future is boundless. It's rare in the entire Principality."

Colin intentionally provoked him in his words, but Ricardo remained silent.Compared with Elena, he himself is so humble that he is in the dirt.

He even went to prison, and his character is not even upright.

"It's nothing, she and I are people from two worlds." Ricardo said:
"If it wasn't for the war ten years ago, we would never have met."

Ricardo didn't know that Elena should also be a Transcendent.And among the nearly a hundred people, the only one who jumped out of the original class and entered the Holy Province of the Principality as an orphan.It is not an exaggeration to say that she and Ricardo are people from two worlds.

But Ke Lin inexplicably felt that the friends around him would silently feel inferior, which was also a kind of humiliation to himself.

"But so what?" Colin straightened his colors and said:
"So what if she's good? Maybe a month later, we'll have to hire her superiors to work for us."

"As long as you are willing, you will only be better than her, don't look down on yourself."

Would the bootlegger's most trusted number one assistant be unworthy of a cult member?
"...No matter how rich I become, she won't think highly of me."

Ricardo retorted, his tone inexplicably hasty.Then he felt that he had slipped his words, and he didn't speak for a while, and Colin didn't respond to him.When he spoke again, he chatted about another topic that was interrupted before:
"Moritti values ​​me more." Ricardo said:
"The old patriarch taught me a lot and I will be forever grateful to him."

Mority is also one of the five patriarchs, but has been locked up on that prison farm for more than 20 years and will be locked up forever.

Most of the people in the prison are controlled by him.Ricardo himself is a five-handed person, after matching up with those people with a few familiar names, he didn't suffer much except torture.

But Colin also heard that Ricardo was always brought by the old patriarch's side.

I don't know what exactly Ricardo experienced during those two years.

Just as Colin was thinking this, footsteps came from behind him.Colin turned his head and saw that Giovanni had just arrived here.

Giovanni had guns stuck behind his back and around his waist, but there was also a cloth bag hanging on his steel prosthesis. His left hand was groping for apples from the cloth bag. He was not so much an attacker, but more like a fruit explorer. sick person.

I always feel that after the absence of Aresio, this person is getting more and more presumptuous.

"You are?!"

Ricardo recognized him, after all the groove on Giovanni's face was too conspicuous.

And the last time they met, this person was still their enemy.Almost almost, Colin was going to die at his hands.

Colin was not surprised, after all, this hidden location was originally chosen by Giovanni.

"Okay."

While chewing the juicy pulp in his mouth, Giovanni threw an apple to Ricardo.This is the best kindness he can show.Ricardo took it in a hurry, and looked at Colin who was a little confused.

"A lot happened..." Colin said helplessly:
"Anyway, this man is a friend now."

Giovanni has privately said that he was impressed by Ricciardo's shooting.When Giovanni led Colin approaching him at high speed, Ricardo precisely hit the dangling breastplate on his neck.At that time, the distance was less than five meters, and a sniper rifle was used.The movement is clean and neat, as if you can close your eyes.

The breastplate was only the size of a coin, and Ricardo completely relied on instinct to complete the shooting.This cannot be explained by skill or talent.

So when Colin proposed to let Ricardo participate in the confrontation with the northern organization, Giovanni also agreed.

As for why Giovanni appeared here, in his own words, it was because Aresio left, so he could only earn living expenses himself.

"Now that everyone is here, let me briefly explain the situation."

Ke Lin glanced at the sky, the child moon was already hanging in the air, and the female moon would take a few hours to rise.

After Ricardo and Giovanni's investigation during this period, it has been determined that the northern organization is looser than expected.It is ostensibly managed by seven agents.Giovanni has marked the identities of these agents one by one because they have to come forward for transactions all the time.

And more wizards will not get involved in the business, as long as they can get the proportion they should take regularly to ensure the overall income of the organization, they don't care who the agent is.

Although agents can generally get more profits, they are always facing bloody competition.There have been cases where three agents were replaced in one day.However, agents who are too incompetent in business may also be considered by wizards for abandonment.

Although Ke Lin is still outside of this wizarding group, if he shows enough strength, it's not like he doesn't have a chance to get an agent.

Enter the interior first, and then swallow this organization.

And tonight is the time to say hello for the first time.
